Today we got paid to charge our EV. Price per kWh was negative until 16:00. Even better than free solar -thank you #OctopusAgile tariff.
#OctopusAgile
Charging 6 smart home devices currently whilst electricity is negative... and my ebike! Every kilowatt used means money saved!

Heads up #OctopusAgile users! Electricity will go negative again tomorrow from 12:30pm to 4pm! Get paid to use electricity!
@jfparis Long time since we've had very low prices on #OctopusAgile either. Was down to about 5p/kWh a couple of times in the last week or so but I think that was the first time this year. No negative prices so far this year AFAIK (and I think I'd have noticed).
Very much peaks and troughs today! Again, some unusually cheap electricity on offer. #octopusagile
Anybody else using Agile Predict?

The API seems to be stuck on data from the 7th of Feb for me and I think on the main web page.

Does anyone have an archive of historical Octopus Agile price data? About a year of it would be good. I'm trying to optimise a battery storage charge timer algorithm and need some test data. #homeassistant #octopusenergy #OctopusAgile

Very much enjoying *getting paid*, albeit a small amount, to charge my car today thanks to #OctopusAgile . It’s nice to see wind and solar doing the heavy lifting 💨☀️

If only our reliance on gas was this minimal all the time. #OctopusAgile
My most expensive (but also relatively high consumption) month on #OctopusAgile yet - but it's *still cheaper* than the same consumption on a price capped tariff, based on the average unit rate 🤯🐙👌
@octopus.energy is a truly disruptive force for good.
But please get those at standing charges fixed
What a difference a day makes. #OctopusAgile
Buckle up & strap in #OctopusAgile
My octopus energy bill for December 2024, showing an average unit rate of 10.48p/kWh
So despite the #Dunkelflaute (and no PV or a battery) I've had one of the best months of the year on @octopus.energy looking at the average unit rate.... #octopusAgile 🐙🔌💨😀
Who says renewables don't work? 🤷♂️
That would be the unit price cap then 😱😱😱

Not easy to sleep with the wind out there. Already had to pick up the wheelie bin full of paper and cardboard before the wind got stronger.
Getting paid to use electric though with the negative #OctopusEnergy #OctopusAgile tariff, so got the washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher on to […]

Finally, the wind is back and I can stop trying to work out if it’s worth charging the battery at 18p/kWh to avoid paying 21p #octopusagile
And we’re off … washing machine and Anker PowerHouse gobbling up the peak Agile rate. #octopusagile
